CollectionView::SortDescriptions Property

 

Gets a collection of SortDescription structures that describes how the items in the collection are sorted in the view.

Namespace:   System.Windows.Data
Assembly:  PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)

public:
property SortDescriptionCollection^ SortDescriptions {
	virtual SortDescriptionCollection^ get();
}

You cannot add a SortDescription to the returned (empty) collection because the base class CollectionView does not support sorting. Instead, use the derived classes ListCollectionView and BindingListCollectionView that do support sorting. Also, check the CanSort property before adding or removing SortDescription objects to avoid an exception.
